ABOUT THE ART

Artist: Henry Kaye

The year was 1994 and Pat Riley had assembled a team that thrived off of defense and intimidation. In every Knick game that year, two things were certain: low scoring and toughness. And these 8 guys made sure that there was plenty of the latter. Charles Smith, Charles Oakley, Patrick Ewing, Anthony Mason, Derek Harper, Greg Anthony, John Starks and Doc Rivers led by Pat Riley elbowed their way to the best record in the Eastern Conference (57-25) and eventually into the NBA Finals.
